Perspective: Princess Cher

Indeed, Fir is an incredible person. He managed to ignite the "Abyssal Icy Abyss" that has stood for hundreds of years!

I wonder what those arrogant and self-important senior mages, who came only to flee in disappointment, would think if they saw this.

!!! Wait, what's with that flame? It's emitting a piercing scream?

And... there's a paw made of white flames appearing! What is going on?

Everything happened too suddenly. By the time I realized it, that white paw had already grabbed Fir in mid-air!

"Attack it!"

Fir shouted loudly from the sky.

Yes, attack!

"I call upon you, Ice Queen, standing atop the endless frost! Come forth, tears of the falling Earth - Ice Fall!"

Fir has been urging me to increase the casting speed, and now I can finally summon Ice Fall within 10 seconds!

But it's not time to relax yet. I can't control the direction of magic as effortlessly as Fir; I have to control it until it falls!

But before my Ice Fall could land, the white flame suddenly became fiercer and instantly snatched Fir away!

"Fir!"

I was momentarily distracted and Ice Fall immediately turned into fragments in the air, breaking into pieces of ice.

But Miss Aliyah beside me dashed out like the wind, with two short swords crossed at her chest, charging straight towards the flame!

"Ultimate skill · Purgatory Cross Death!"

A huge red cross unfolded from her back and began to spin like a whirlwind!

Then, Aliyah turned into a red shadow and charged towards the flame holding Fir, crashing into it!

...

The white flame merely trembled before swallowing Aliyah whole.

The flame that had taken Fir also receded and remained motionless.

Huh?

Huh huh huh huh huh?

----------------------- Line to indicate that Qiyue is very tired -------------------------

A flash of white light, and as soon as my vision recovered, I found myself in mid-air!

"So exciting?"

Then, unable to resist the force of gravity, I began to freefall.

Flying!

The wings of the angelic wings quickly spread, but for some reason, I couldn't fly!

Are you kidding me?

Before I could finish the thought, I slammed hard onto the ground with a muffled sound, my face making intimate contact with Mother Earth.

"Ouch... Where on earth is this?"

Getting up from the ground, I looked around.

The sky and surroundings were all endless blue, except for the corridor I was in; there was nothing else in sight.

Looking at the mini-map... among the things I could think of, there was only one thing similar to this.

"No way, is this a maze?"

"Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah!!!!"

Suddenly, a scream came from above me. Looking up, I saw a black dot in the sky, getting bigger and bigger.

Oh my, someone else is falling too?

"Arcane · Storm of Speed!"

Green streams of air quickly rose upwards, and the falling person landed directly in the middle. The rising streams of air lifted her up.

I reached out and caught the person.

"Aliyah?"

"..."

Aliyah clearly didn't expect that it was me who caught her. She stared at me in surprise for a while and then suddenly said:

"Um... can you put me down first?"

"Of course."

Slowly, I set Aliyah down and asked:

"Are you okay?"

"I'm fine... Where is this..."

Aliyah slowly regained her senses and looked around, asking.

"I don't know either. Like you, I just fell to this place a moment ago, but at least someone caught you. I fell directly on the ground.""Don't worry, if I fall first, you'll fall directly to the ground too."

"......"

"What, are you still hoping that I can catch you?"

"Of course I don't expect that, but at least you could have lied to me and said that you could catch me... Wait, shouldn't you, as a warrior, be stronger than me?"

"Tch! Don't expect me, an idiot like you, to catch you!"

"Alright, alright. But our current problem should be how to leave this place. It looks like a maze based on the small map, but it's quite extensive. I can't see the entire map."

"A maze..."

Aliyah rolled her eyes.

"I hate mazes the most."

"But generally, there are a lot of good things inside a maze, right? Let's go. There's only one direction we can go now. It seems that we're right at the starting point of the maze."

"So you mean... we just keep walking."

I shrugged.

"I hope... that's the case."
